Keep drawing layers organized with ordering and grouping in the layer palette.
To move a layer up or down in the tree:
Mouse over the layer row
Click and drag on the grab handles on the far left (which look like 6 dots)
Move the layer to where it should be and release
Layer Groups
Layer Groups are an excellent way to organize lots of layers into easier-to-manage chunks. Groups can contain any mix of Drawing Layer and Data Layers.
To Create a Group:
Drag one layer directly on top of another layer using the grab handle (6 dots on the left).
You will be prompted to enter a name for the group.
Add more layers to the group by dragging them onto the group header.
Adjust the layer order within the group the same way you would adjust layer order outside a group.
